Product Details
Methylene Blue Trihydrate is a synthetic thiazine dye and laboratory reagent commonly used in staining, microscopy, chemical analysis, redox indicator applications, R&D testing, and industrial quality control. It is usually supplied as a dark green to dark blue crystalline powder and is soluble in water.
This product is supplied as Analytical Reagent Grade / AR Grade, making it more suitable for laboratory, reagent distribution, research, and quality control procurement rather than food, cosmetic, supplement, or direct consumer applications.
For procurement and technical review, buyers usually need to confirm not only the product name and price, but also the exact hydration form, CAS number, grade, assay, impurity limits, solubility, packaging format, documentation package, MOQ, and shipment feasibility. ELIS Biotech helps small and medium-sized B2B buyers check suitable China supply options, coordinate documents, confirm sample or trial order feasibility, and support bulk order export according to destination country and project requirements.

Key Sourcing Points to Confirm
When sourcing Methylene Blue Trihydrate, buyers may need to confirm CAS number, hydration form, analytical reagent grade standard, assay, appearance, solubility, drying loss, insoluble matter, residue on ignition, impurity limits, packaging format, storage conditions, documentation, and intended application.
For laboratory reagent suppliers, research teams, QC departments, and specialty chemical distributors, it is also important to confirm whether the product is intended for staining, indicator use, analytical testing, industrial QC, or resale packaging. These details help determine suitable specification, packaging size, document requirements, and shipment feasibility.
Technical Notes
Methylene Blue may appear under different CAS numbers depending on whether buyers refer to the anhydrous form or trihydrate form. For Methylene Blue Trihydrate, the commonly used CAS number is 7220-79-3. Buyers should confirm the hydration form before quotation to avoid mismatch between inquiry, COA, label, and import documents.
This product should be reviewed according to its intended use. If the buyer requires pharmaceutical, medical, diagnostic, food, cosmetic, or regulated end-use applications, additional grade confirmation, regulatory review, and documentation checks are required before quotation or shipment.
